I've begun work on a photo documentary about a local animal shelter, that I want to put together in book format. I'm currently looking at Affinity Publisher, but I'm curious to learn what others are using. TIA

What’s the best ‘camera’ bag for run and gun shooting. Preferably not a backpack

I photograph a lot of the protests/demos/events in London, currently I am using a Uniqlo Sling bag to carry my A7riii + Lens and/or Lenses, 13” MacBook, small flash among other bits.

Due to the nature of these fast paced events happening on the streets, I don’t necessarily want to have a backpack. I want to remain fairly nimble and not feel like a turtle..

I’m either thinking of getting that Newswear chest vest or the Thinktank belt system.. any other recommendations are entirely welcome!

I’ve been doing this for just under a year so you old heads (in a nice way) might know more than me :)

(please remove if not allowed! tried searching to see if this was asked before but couldn't find anything)

I am a photographer entering my junior year of high school next month. I have shot close to 100 games between different sports and leagues, all without issue besides one high school; i was told (by a very nice man, if somehow you're reading this i'm not dissing you!) that to get sideline access, i needed to be with a local news station because of \[something insurance related\]. I understood and shot thru the chain link fence for the remainder of that school's games, but with the next season coming soon, i'd like to be on the sidelines and get the shots that i know i could.

However, i'm completely lost as to how to even begin. Does anyone have any advice? Anything is greatly appreciated!

Doing some research for a play but all I’m able to fine are photos of gitmo prisoners wearing orange beanies and the blacked out goggles, etc. Then I can find images of protestors wearing the black hoods. I’m thinking of the famous images around 2002 and following.

Working on some costume design choices and while the hood would work I think even if it’s only been protestors, I would like the be historically accurate if possible.

For me the image of a prisoner wearing a black hood is iconic (in my mind). Have I just made it up that that actually exists and have just been influenced by the images of protestors? Or were gitmo prisoners actually transported in black hoods?

Thanks!

Edit: Edit: I’m not thinking of the photo from Abu Ghraib. I talking about a cloth black sack type hood.

Thanks!
